'DEF,LargeCV': Moving on to 'DEF' (with some 'ABC' ones yet to review), the triads help organize another brief exegesis. Delegating Chess is one that has excellent central idea but lesser play-worthiness. The concept is that a piece gains its movement ability from any friendly piece that can presently move to its square. This specific embodiment of a rule used before makes sense in having strong pieces and narrow board, so King cannot slither away.
